ref: IEEE Standard 802.16: A technical overview of the WirelessMAN Air Interface for Broadband Wireless Access
这篇文章简要的对于wimax进行了介绍。WiMax分为两层,物理层和MAC层(与802.3的MAC不同,与其他802xx的MAC也应该不同吧?)
感觉802xx协议都是定义了MAC层和物理层,高层没有定义,这也就说上面都是使用IP协议。
但是这篇文章中为什么又说上层可以使用ATM技术呢? ATM应该是MAC与物理层呀??
Each SS contains both a manufacturer-issued factory-installed X.509 digital certificate and the certificate of the manufacturer. These certificates, which establish a link between the 48-bit MAC address of the SS and its public RAS key, are sent to the BS by the ss in the Authorization Request and Authentication Information messages. The network is able to verify the identify of the SS by checking the level of authorization of the SS. If the SS is authorized to join the nework, the BS will respond to its request with an Authorization Reply containing an Authorization Key(AK) encrypted with the SS's public key and used to secure further transactions.

最古老的wimax采用用PKM认证机制,后来2006采用EAP认证机制。我们的项目采用EAP-TTLS认证。
